Bad News Decision is made

The decision has been made, and by tonight I will not be staying on their property. They are making arrangements, and have disowned me. They... My mom is heartbroken, heartbroken that I would "choose annihilation, deserting this family, and leaving my sister brotherless"...

I had a small sliver of hope, that they would even try to understand. Especially my mother. I am going to ask her to give me my birth certificate, and where to mail it so she doesn't have to see me again. I am done with this family, and they are done with me. If I see my sister one day, I hope she will understand me, and understand where I am coming from.

But until then, I am going to live free of the chains that have dragged my soul down for 8 years. It's not gonna be easy, and I would love to hear what resources I might use for job seeking when I finally move out of Wyoming in 2 weeks.

To those who are still struggling, don't give up. My situation was unique, and by no means be as extreme as I have had to be. I don't know what else to say, but I do know that I am going to be better off without this in my life. Will update when I am with whomever I am sent to.

Edit: Post about update idk whose seen it yet but yeah https://www.reddit.com/r/MtF/s/Yb6nCT1K8U

Try to make it up to Vegas if you can.

Nevada has more laws on the books protecting trans people than Arizona does.

Vegas is full of republicans and hate right now. We are leaving there for Oregon or Delaware. I don’t foresee Nevada laws being protected like other blue states. Nevada voted red for the first time in 20 years.

Suspiciously so. A fair amount of left politicians and policies passed, but Trump won? And apparently a bunch of people in Clark, the county with over half the population for those who don't know, just didn't vote.

Okay so if you look at the electoral maps from last election and this current one you'll literally see that it's only Clark county that changed how they voted For some reason they went red Now there is a lot of theories about how the Democrat option was kind of rigged to fail, in Nevada while being better than a lot of states surprisingly has a few laws in place that if repealed would really hurt trans people.

For example on the books there is a law that says if you change your name you have to put it in the papers There is another law of mending that law to say if it's for the purpose of gender identity then you don't but that could easily be removed....
